Panache Fair Trade Certified Organic Coffees Panache's "Fair Trade" coffees, certified by TransFair USA, an independent non-profit agency that monitors and certifies Fair Trade products in the United States, help farming families by paying a guaranteed fair, above market price for their harvest, thus providing them with a decent living wage. This is accomplished by avoiding middlemen and dealing directly with farmers and their cooperatives. Over the years, Panache has financially supported coffee growing cooperatives. Now we are pleased to offer their coffees that are Fair Trade Certified.
